Hello Folks
I was notified that I had a software update with my Kubuntu 11.10. Previously when I went to Update Manager I got an "Authenticatin Error" (Exact=This operation cannot continue since proper authorization was not provided) and read about how to possibly correct it here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1891806&page=2
I did the following:
sudo apt-get purge policykit-1 policykit-desktop-privileges polkit-kde-1
followed up
sudo apt-get install policykit-1 policykit-desktop-privileges polkit-kde-1
Once this completed I then went into Update Manager.
I then clicked on it, told it to go check for any updated and at that point "Update Manager" hung.. When I put my mouse over the program the arrow changes to a spinning globe..
My set-up is a AMD Phenom II Black Quad-Core, 16GB RAM & 500GB HD on ASUS MB.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this? I'll be more than happy to post information that could help. :confused:
Thanks
